RockFarm Office Building

Client – Straka Johnson Architects
Location – Dubuque, IA
Type of Project – Commercial – Office

A beautiful two-story building with a unique floor plan, situated on a steep slope. The second floor features a large cantilever overlooking Granger Creek Nature trail. The main challenge was designing the foundations to not only retain the soil pressure but also resist sliding and overturning forces from the large cantilevers at the back of the building.
